Rated capacities of basket hitches are based on 40 times wire rope diameter (1/4″ through 1″ diameter slings) and 25 times wire rope diameter (1-1/8″ and larger diameter slings). Basket ratings are calculated for vertical lifting. Appropriate reductions must be made when angular lifting is involved.

All slings are proof-tested to 2 times working load limit. Design factor is 5:1.
